FRAUNHOFER CHILE:
A DRIVER FOR INNOVATION IN CHILE
© Fraunhofer
Joseph von Fraunhofer's Vision: »Being Closer to the stars«
Born in 1787, Fraunhofer was self-trained. He developed new types of glass, made
significant improvements in glass manufacturing. The perfection of the construction of
optical instruments led to impressive results. Fraunhofer established standardized
manufacturing methods, expanded the product range of the workshop significantly and
with that increased its economic success. He died in 1826.

Intensive exchange with society

The Management model of Fraunhofer is driven by the intermediary position between
science and industry

The Fraunhofer management model needs to foster
 demand driven thinking (close contact to industry)
 ideas and fundamental research (close contact to universities)
 thinking in networks (making new connections)
 thinking in system approaches (Life cycle analysis etc)

THE FRAUNHOFER MODEL
• Fraunhofer is an application-oriented research organization
• Long-term support from German Government
• Close collaboration with industry/government
• Via contract research
• Strong focus on SMEs as well as medium sized companies
• Scientific excellence
• Key to competitiveness
• Close collaboration with Universities
• Financing Model – basics
• 33% base funding from State, 33% from public competitions, 33%
from industry contracts
• Now more like 20% base funding, 40% public competitions, 40%
industry funding e.g 80% from contract research
• Industry revenue as key KPI
THE FRAUNHOFER MODEL
• Wide regional distribution of Institutes within Germany
focused on regional industry needs
• Technology licensing as core business model (mp3)
• Additional value creation via spin-offs
• Fraunhofer generated over 200 spin-offs in 10 years
• Looking for key opportunities to create significant value
• Contribution to economic growth and
competitiveness of German industry
•
• About €3bil annual wealth creation from licensing
• Creation of highly skilled jobs within Fraunhofer as well as
industry
• Total impact much larger
THE HISTORY OF FRAUNHOFER
• 1949 founded in Munich
• Support fund raising for industrial project in mining, iron and steel,
and mechanincal engineering
• Head also was Professor at Munich University
• 1952 recogntion as third pillar of German science
infrastructure (DFG and MPI)
• 1954 First Institute established in 1954 with support from
Laender: Applied Microscopy, Photography and Cinematography
• 1955 Fraunhofer Patent Center established; subsequently
many more Institutes created for industrial standards and
applied research
• 1956 Defense projects established
• 1958 first Institute hived off (shoe manufacture)
• 1965 German Science Council recommends FhG as umbrella
organization for applied research
THE HISTORY OF FRAUNHOFER
• 1972 Fraunhofer Model established
• Government base funding as a function of success at acquiring
contract research, i.e. R&D with strong focus on market needs
